Recently, the FHN varsity volleyball team has had an increase in their record as they are 11-16 which can be attributed to the significant changes made to their program.
Players and coaches have agreed on new methods and techniques for the varsity girls volleyball program. Coach Stephanie Fisk has pushed for an increase in communication and movement on the court to secure FHN more wins over the season.
“[The coaches] started pushing us to be more outgoing, hustle more for loose balls, and always fight for every last play,” varsity player, Alissa Simon said.
The team has already begun to see positive results, especially with communication.
Fisk has started this process in just her second year of coaching, which, for many people, could be hard to adjust to. But this contrasts heavily with what the players have said, with a great attitude for the rest of the season, and a sense of understanding for their coaches.
“I feel like [the other players] will be understanding of ‘oh, no hard feelings’ because we’re playing the best of the best, and our main goal is winning,” Simon said. “Everyone has to be out for every point, and just show that they
care. Never give up on a play.”
The agreement between the staff and athletes is clear, and some have even claimed that they’re already seeing improvements, which is evident in their attitude towards their upcoming district games.
“We won’t reach our goal without high communication on the court,” Simon said.
And, just as impressively, the team has not brought out any extra staff. This is being orchestrated simply by Fisk and her players. Simon pushes to credit both the players and coaches for the team’s changes.
“It was both [of our ideas],” Simon said. “The coaches were more honest and direct about just how much work we needed to put in. All they wanted was to win, and obviously, we want to win too.”
